I have an exchange server that we moved from another building to a new one.
We had to change ISP providers and get a new external ip address. What needs
to be done to set up with the new ISP provider and the new external ip
address? Do I change the MX record and A record to point to new external ip
address? Is this right and what else might I do. Do I have to change any
setting on the exchange server itself? Thanks

Your Exchange server's most likely using internal/private IP addresses - if
that's the case, as long as your internal IP addressing is the same (in your
new building), you don't need to change anything on your server.
- DNS: Yes, A record should map to new external IP address, no change
required in MX - it points to the A record.
- Firewall: If you're using a firewall/NAT, you'll need to make changes to
the IP addresses and NAT rule(s) on the fw.
